CollaborateSoftware Development Guide
Our aim is to play a prominent role in promoting the development, (re)use and dissemination of research software that meets accepted standards. Our software development guide provides an up-to-date manual on software development for research software engineers.
Software Development GuideFAIR Software Recommendations
The FAIR Software Recommendations are a set of best practices for research software development. These recommendations are outlined and explained in the FAIR Website, a joint initiative between the Netherlands eScience Center and DANS.
FAIR RecommendationsResearch Software Directory
Our Research Software Directory is made freely available to researchers and organizations who produce research software. The directory makes it easier to manage and share one’s own software and to increase its visibility, reach and impact.
